Once upon a time, rather than having to engage Sindragosa upon the death of her lesser winged comrades, we would reset her by pulling her through the gates into the gauntlet room, thereby giving us the opportunity to pull her at our own choosing and without prior combat engagement with another dragon.

Yeah. That's not happening anymore. I narrowly escaped doom by making it up the elevator shaft, and the guy beside me was no so lucky as she teleported him to her before she decided to despawn.

fun :Phad something similar last week.our tank pulled some trash from blood quarter while the healers were afk, so needless the say he died.We then proceeded to run back to deathbringers rise to safely escape, only to find out the adds happily came thru the portal and slaughtered us there :P

Ahahah ! In my previous guild, we never used the reset function, and we were quite surprised when in our current guild, the first time we went there they told us "Run !" Ugh ??? I told them you can't reset her in heroic (maybe it's not true...) because I don't like running away.

Since, they drag the second dog inside and we have more time to go take the elevator...

Ah yes, the first time we tried this she burst into the room most comically and killed us. I think it might be LoS that makes the difference, rather than distance. So if you all hide behind the butresses, she tends to reset...

We did normal mode last night, Kaethir, just to get some drake achievements out of the way for a couple of our newer raiders. It still was a sucky raid night, though, with mods broken and people not used to threat yet (tanks/dps both) or their full class rotations.

We nuked most of the bosses from orbit, when we were able to due to achievement restrictions. We killed Festergut before he even exhaled. Full House was another matter. >_>

Tonight she didn't reset until she had teleported all 10 of us back to her and had snacks. From the gauntlet room, from other levels, from way back at the ICC entrance. She's nothing if not thorough now...

DamiaUI DBM... still not fixed. /sad Kae. I'm keeping an eye out for an update for the skin; it seems some alterations were made to the dbm template file that were necessary for 4.0. LunarSphere has also not yet updated, and along with GridStatusLifebloom, they make my top three most-anticipated mod updates remaining.

omg I've had the worst luck resetting her. One time she hit me from at the bottom of the elevator, and I was at the top not on the elevator. She's also teleported me to her from the beginning of the instance, and from Suarfang's platform, and just generally killed me if I hung around anywhere near her when she was pulled to reset. After a month or two of getting killed every time we did this. I just hearthed to Dalaran, and flew back. Normally she wasn't reset by the time I got there, so I flew in circles, whee.

With Cata I think she reincarnated as Lord Godfrey in SFK... he teleported me into the hills around SFK and spawned ghouls on me the other day. I haven't been back since ><
